Rome’s history spans more than two and a half thousand years. While Roman mythology dates the founding of Rome at only around 753 BC, the site has been inhabited for much longer, making it one of the oldest continuously occupied sites in Europe. Here are the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, the Pantheon, the Circus Maximus, the Trevi Fountain and the Roman Baths. More on Wikipedia.
